RUN AWAY from Mr. John Watts, of Pensacola, about the 8th May last, a very tall well made sensible NEGROE FELLOW, named PRINCE, six feet high, an exceeding good carpenter and cooper. It's supposed he will make either for this province, or Carolina, where he was bred; had on when he went away blue cloathes, but may have changed them; he is an artful cunning fellow, and may attempt to pass for a free man. A REWARD of TWENTY DOLLARS, and all reasonable charges, will be paid any perosn who will take up and deliver the said negroe to the subcriber, or the warden of the work-house. ROGER KELSALL. Savannah, June 20, 1765.
